Student Spotlight:
Abby Brown '16
Each week the Scecina Student Spotlight introduces the Crusader Community to a student who has been a recipient of the President's Academic Excellence Award.
Senior Abby Brown, who is co-captain of Scecina's varsity football cheer squad, excels in science and wants to study Nutritional Sciences so she can be a crusader for ending world hunger. Abby is passionate about cheerleading and dedicates much of her time to it. The qualities of dedication and tenacity that have set Abby apart as an athlete also have made her a standout in the classroom
